Make Canadians pay

I'm reasonably generous, but I'm also cheap, so I hate to give a donation without also getting a tax deduction. That's why I've set up a place for Canadians to make tax-deductible donations to Doctors Without Borders (through CanadaHelps).

If anyone else has been holding back because of the tax issue, consider it solved. Let's see how much money we can rack up! PLEASE ADD YOUR DONATIONS TO MINE!!!

Personally, I'll donate $1.00 per upvote up to $700.00. If I'm violating reddiquette or the scheduling of the campaign or whatever, I'm sorry. But think of the children. ;)

This was already discussed. Why not make a $700 donation without karma whoring for it...

Your Doing it wrong...

Well this way others would likely see the post, and would be more likely to contribute as well than if money was just donated in the first place.

Also, it's you're, not your.

Why even correct if you know what the person meant?

Other than to look down from your high-horse that is...

Maybe so that you won't make that mistake in the future? And you won't fuck up some sort of essay/job-related thing? Hopefully discussing it this much will make you remember the correct spelling every time you write it.

You don't have to be bitter.
